Kia ora whānau.
I am English Māori, here as an artist, educator, and Holistic Expressive Arts practitioner who has fallen deeply in love with the land and spirit of Australia. I am a mother and observer of life, guided by curiosity, creativity, and a reverence for the unseen threads that connect us.
With a background in secondary arts education, my work weaves together artmaking, intuitive movement, guided meditation, and storytelling. I create grounded, nurturing spaces that support self-expression, reflection, healing, and transformation for individuals and groups across diverse ages and communities.
I am a qualified HEArts² practitioner, having completed my studies with the Australian School of Holistic Counselling. Through my practice, I guide others to reconnect with their bodies, inner wisdom, and creative voice, using art‑making as both a sacred and practical process. I believe creativity is a bridge between mind, body, and spirit, and a powerful way to release what no longer serves.
Now in a new season of motherhood, I am fully committed to my private practice and offer one‑to‑one sessions, workshops, and group experiences for those seeking creative, soul‑led support and self‑empowerment.

breathwork & sound
Namaste, lovely community.
Originally from Germany, I have been on a journey of expansion since leaving my hometown near Frankfurt in 2019. I am a musician, facilitator, and event host devoted to creating spaces of connection through sound, breath, movement, and presence.
Music is the thread that grounds me in the present moment and connects me to the unseen. It is both my creative foundation and my way of tuning into the deeper rhythms of the self. I believe art and sound are powerful portals, supporting emotional release, expanded awareness, and a return to wholeness.
I am a Certified Breathwork Instructor, having completed my training with Flow Institute Australia. Alongside my work as a DJ and creative director for Dream Connective Entertainment, I facilitate men’s circles and offer one‑to‑one breathwork sessions, providing safe and intentional spaces for grounding, release, and self‑inquiry.
At the heart of my work is a belief that healing is not a solitary path. Through shared presence, openness, and vulnerability, we remember our humanity and evolve together, held by community, rhythm, and breath.
